We are so thankful for St. Mary’s School. The teachers and staff are caring, compassionate and there for our children.

Our children have gained morals and values that will be with them forever and carry them throughout life. They look forward to school every day and miss school during the holidays.I am very grateful to St. Mary’s for the gift they have given our family.

St. Mary’s Oak Ridge is a warm and welcoming place that is well situated for the highest level of education. The classes are small enough to allow one on one interaction between the children and the teachers. The school’s approach to education enables all levels of learning to be incorporated in the classes. The interaction between our school and the public school system to facilitate their resources to benefit the education of our children is outstanding.

What a precious, wonderful school! They truly are a family. The students are greeted every morning by name as they enter the door! We love the school’s laid back atmosphere with the focus on academic learning and being a Christian family. We have enjoyed our St. Mary’s experience!

St. Mary’s is one of the best decisions my wife and I have made. The education and faith-filled, family environment is second to none. I look forward to the following four years to watch my kids grow at this wonderful school. I pray that all families be as blessed as we have been thus far to have the opportunity to be a St. Mary’s family.
